MW-755, Straight Flange Magnet Wire Plastic Spools/Reels, has been adopted and MW-760 Tapered Flange Magnet Wire Plastic Spools/Reels is in final draft. These specifications are an attempt to unify the spools/reels used by the magnet wire industry and provide data useful in manufacturing operations of both the magnet wire producers and the magnet wire users. The work being done on a standard for reclaimed plastic spools/reels is also outlined. This standard is important from both an environmental and a safety standpoint.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":367238,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 20th Electrical Electronics Insulation Conference","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123782747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Solid dielectrics have evolved from cellulose paper to synthetic polymers. Dielectric liquids have also undergone major changes over the years. The need to find alternatives to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the mid-1970's led to advances in the fundamental understanding and synthesis of fluids with improved characteristics. Manufacturers continue to offer reliable power capacitors at low cost through their efforts to carefully assemble properly matched dielectric materials in near-particle-free environments. Current technologies are presented, along with a discussion of future directions.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":367238,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 20th Electrical Electronics Insulation Conference","volume":"2005 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125617693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These strategies are deemed vital because failure to promptly and properly address the related issues will prevent the business unit from surviving the decade. The strategies are initially grouped as external and internal for purposes of discussion. The external elements are markets, customers, regulations, technology, competition, product liabilities, capital, and networking. The internal strategies are discussed with reference to vision, continual improvement, business improvement ideas, concurrent engineering, employees, future systems, flexibility, cost, preferred employer, employee benefits, business planning, and forecasting. It is concluded that it is imperative that the business unit or organization effectively implements its action plans for all the strategies.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":367238,"journal":{"name":"[1991] Proceedings of the 20th Electrical Electronics Insulation Conference","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127870296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
